documenting the progress of the work at hillington square

Monthly Archives: September 2015

Not long ago, we wrote a post about Hillington Square being nominated in the National Housing Awards for Best Marketing Campaign. The awards took place a couple of weeks ago and although we didn’t win we did get highly commended from the judging panel.

Wait, there’s more!

Hillington Square was nominated and won the Housing category in the Architects’ Journal Retrofit awards.

Also, Architects mae LLP, entered the Hillington Square project in to the RTPI (Royal Town Planning Institute) Planning Achievement Award and Hillington Square was named as a joint winner in the East of England regional awards. The honour was shared with Evolution Town Planning.

Come along and grab a bargain on Thursday 17 September 12-2pm at the Community Café on Hillington Square for the launch of the Pop-Up Clothes Shop!

It will then remain open for two weeks, first at the Community Café and then opening at Providence Street Community Centre, weekdays 9am-5pm. Clothes will be priced between £2 – £5 and will be in adult and children sizes. Please check the leaflet below for more details.

All money raised will go towards the Father Christmas Grotto at Hillington Square.

Freebridge have been invited to take part in the King’s Lynn Heritage Day on Sunday 13th September 2015. The event sees various buildings opened up to the public around King’s Lynn. Hillington Square has been invited to open up the show flat and is No 9 on the trail (see map below). The flat will be open from 10 -4 as will the Community Cafe.

If you want to know more about the day, including details of all the buildings that will be open, the programme has just been published and can be seen/downloaded here.
